Default thinking of ditching my otvc loom setup

Has anyone used this?

Trans-Dapt Performance Products 8773 - Trans-Dapt Performance Under Header Wire Loom Kits http://www.summitracing.com/parts/TRD-8773/

trying to find something to go under the headers, I threw out all the stock stuff a long time ago.

I'm not getting a good seal on the valve covers, i've got some oil leaks I'm trying to solve, the rubber holder from the made 4 you kit compresses when torquing and I'm not sure it should do that to create a good seal. I've got a set of tall valve covers I bought off ebay and the "made 4 you" bolts will be too short for it anyway. Once the MSD wires comes in, I'll change it and put this stuff up for sale. kills me to see this thing leaking on my new concrete in the garage. I have a big cardboard sheet under it so I don't stain my whole garage floor.

I'd like something to keep it close to the block and not have it hanging so loose, that's why when I saw this kit looked interesting.
